Abstract
ABSTRACT The NiS nanoparticles were synthesised by the microwave-assisted chemical precipitation method. The XRD pattern shows that the prepared NiS nanoparticles have an orthorhombic structure. The SEM image of NiS nanoparticles confirms the nanostructure. The energy-dispersive X-ray analysis confirms the existence of Nickel and Sulphur in a proper ratio. The D.C. electrical resistances were measured in the temperature range 300 K–500 K. Oscillations were found in the temperature resistance curve of Nickel Sulphide nanoparticles on repeated heating and cooling due to phase transition. The XRD pattern of the powdered form of the NiS pellet used for the resistance measurement also confirms this phase transition. The two forms of UV and PL spectra of NiS nanoparticles were studied.
期刊介绍:
Phase Transitions is the only journal devoted exclusively to this important subject. It provides a focus for papers on most aspects of phase transitions in condensed matter. Although emphasis is placed primarily on experimental work, theoretical papers are welcome if they have some bearing on experimental results. The areas of interest include:
-structural phase transitions (ferroelectric, ferroelastic, multiferroic, order-disorder, Jahn-Teller, etc.) under a range of external parameters (temperature, pressure, strain, electric/magnetic fields, etc.)
-geophysical phase transitions
-metal-insulator phase transitions
-superconducting and superfluid transitions
-magnetic phase transitions
-critical phenomena and physical properties at phase transitions
-liquid crystals
-technological applications of phase transitions
-quantum phase transitions
Phase Transitions publishes both research papers and invited articles devoted to special topics. Major review papers are particularly welcome. A further emphasis of the journal is the publication of a selected number of small workshops, which are at the forefront of their field.
